For a few weeks in 2012, Luo Baogen and his wife had
the most unusual address in all of China. When the Baogen's
neighborhood was demolished to make way for a new highway, they felt that
the government's compensation was too low and decided to hold out.
The Chinese Government, however, responded by paving the highway around
the Baogen's home, forcing cars to drive around it.

While it was clear that intimidation was being
played, the Baogens resisted... even going so far as to sleep in separate
parts of the house to stop any sneaky partial demolitions. Eventually,
however, the government and the Baogens reached an agreement on the
compensation and the home was finally destroyed.
